UK Outlook for Wednesday 1 Dec 2010 to Friday 10 Dec 2010:
Further snow showers or longer spells of snow are likely almost anywhere
across the UK next week, with northern, eastern and central areas
tending to see the most frequent showers. However, there is a risk of
some more persistent rain, sleet and snow accompanied by strong,
possibly gale force, winds leading to blizzard conditions during
Wednesday. Winds should ease into Thursday, especially in the north,
with snow showers continuing in eastern and central areas. The following
weekend and week is expected to remain very cold with continuing frost
and icy roads, with northern and eastern parts most at risk from further
spells of snow or wintry showers. Meanwhile, some western areas may turn
slightly less cold later in the first week of December.

UK Outlook for Saturday 11 Dec 2010 to Saturday 25 Dec 2010:
The cold conditions are likely to continue. Precipitation amounts should
be average or slightly below, with a risk of sleet and snow at times in
many areas. Sunshine amounts are likely to be above average, although
some southeastern parts may see more in the way of cloud. Temperatures
are likely to continue well below average, with widespread frosts,
sometimes severe. However, some western and southern parts may be less
cold at the start of the period in particular, but still with the risk
of further rain, sleet and snow.
